Farmer Supports Hail Suppression
Editor, The Pioneer,
Dear Sir:-
Would you please allow me some |
space in your paper to present “One
Man’s Opinion” concerning Hail
Suppression. I would lke to pre-
sent a few facts and figures to show
Suppression is
If a farmer has a quarter section
of oats yielding 60 bushels per acre,
the total value would be approxi-
mately $3,295, based on the present
price of 42%c per bushel. After
deducting a total cost for harvest
expenses of $624, based on 166
acres at $4.00 per acre, the farmer
would have left a net harvest of
how valuable Hail
to the farmer.
$2,671.
The cast of Hail Suppression on
one quarter seotion is $25. There-
fore, if Hai! Suppression saves one
crop, the farmer would have saved
enough money for Hail Suppression
for 106.5 years for a quarter sec-
tion, Or, if the $2,671 saved were
loaned out at 6%, the farmer
could pay the Hail Suppression
dues on six quarters ‘till the end of
ume
However, if the farmer decides to
insure his crop for $21 an acre,
which is the value received from
the average crop mentioned above,
the cost would be $3.78 per acre.
Therefore, to insure 66 acres
would cost the equivalent of Hail
Suppression on one-quarter section
of land.
Surely it is plain to see that it is
more logical to take a chance on
Hail Suppression than to insure
and have no hope whatsoever ot!
suppressing that hard “white stuff."
I was completely hailed out last
year but I'm still willing to vote in
favoy of suppression for 1958.
Thank you for your time and
space, with the hope that these
humble examples will make the
farmers think seriously in favor of
Hail Suppression.
Yours very truly,
HERMAN DAGEFORDE

FALLOUT — LIVESTOCK
How wil) fallout affect unprocet-
@d livestock: that is animals in
fields, pastures and other open
areas?
Fallout may be dangerous to
cattle, sheep, horses, pigs and
other livestock, as well as to human
beings. Animals can suffer skin
burns if fallout settles in the coat.
If animals drink fallout in their
water or eat it in pasture grass or
commercial feed, the radiation may
cause serious internal injuries. Ex-
ternal radiation or surface contam-
ination emits rays capable of pene-
trating deep into the body and may
result in total body exposure.
If you receive ample warning that
fallout is coming, you can take cer-
tain precautions to protect your

and reduce losses. But
once fallout occurs, you should not
attempt to protect livestock unless
Civil Defence officials tell you that
it ts safe to do so.
How Will Fallout Affect
Sheltered Livestock?
Livestock housed in barns = and
other farm buildings during fall-
out stand a better chance of surviv-
ing the effects of radiation than
those that are not sheltered. A
reasonably well-built shelter pre-
vents fallout from settling on the
animal's bodies and may reduce the
intensity of external radiation. It
also protects the animals’ eating
contaminated food.
What Is The Best Way To
Protect Livestock From Fallout?
Move them indoors as soon as
possible, and keep them off con-
taminated feed and water. If you
do not have adequate facilities to
house livestock, put them near
buildings, in a yard, or in a tree-
sheltered field.
Get your dairy cattle under cover
first. If they eat fallout, or drink
it in water, some of the radioactive
material wil) be in their manure
and urine, and some will be in their
milk.

LABOR CONCERNED
OVER FARMERS’ DILEMMA
Labor leaders in Canada are
seriously concerned over the econ-
omic effects of the drastic drop in
the past year in farm income. In
their annual brief to the federal.
cabinet, presented recently at Ot- |
tawa, the Canadian Congress of |
, Labor had this to say:
“We are alarmed by the drastic
fall in farm income. This ts bad
for the farm people, most of whom
,are far from rich, and who still
| make up one-sixth of the Canadian
| population.
It is bad for economy generally,
which is still heavily dependent on
jexports, of whiei farm products
make up about one-quarter. It is
also bad for Canadian workers, for
whose products a prosperous agri-
culture would provide a substantial
market,
Canadian labor will fully support
inything the government can do to
‘estore the purchasing power of
Canadian farmers.”

Don’t you think it’s time something was done
about the parking style on the “main stem”, from the
bank corner to the telephone office? Parallel parking
on at least one side of the street could be the answer!
On a busy afternoon it's nigh on the impossible to!
squeeze two moving cars thru the narrow path left in
the centre of the road. With the new parking area:
and a few well placed signs, the danger of accidents
would be greatly pase
Just For The Record ...
A Didsbury youth was handed a heavy fine in
Calgary police court one day last week for driving on
the highway at a speed in excess of 100 miles an hour
— we understand the ticket read $200 and costs, with
suspension of his driver's licence for six months. For
that six-month period he'll have to be a co-pilot in any
motor vehicle in which he climbs into. Was the pen-
alty stiff enough when you think of the innocent per-
sons who could have been killed or maimed in the
mad race. We wonder! We certainly hope that as a
passenger he will pick up a few pointers on how to
handle the modern menaces.

Christmas is coming, "tis
plain to see,
The folks around here are
so nice to me;
My slippers are put by
the fire with care,
Right alongside of my
favorite easy chair.
My pipe and tobacco are
put by my side,
When I come in from work
at eventide;
My reading glasses are
polished up bright,
So I can read almost
without the lamp light.
The mail order catalogue
is opened up wide,
At the page where fur coats
are made out of hides;
‘Tis as plain as the nose
on my face to see
What the wife is expecting
this Christmas from me.
Another catalogue is open,
where there's presents for all,
Some beautiful dresses for
party or ball;
The right size is there
for our little girl,
Maybe she’s old enough
to go out for a whirl,
Another open catalogue that’s

Shows new bicycles that would
be any boy's pride;
There's none so blind as they
that won't see;
I think this old saying
will apply to me.
A pair of striped socks
at the bottom of the page,
Which are suitable for men
of any old age;
These are marked with a
red cross I can see
And I'll bet that’s what they're
getting for grandpappy.
I think that I'll fool ‘em
this Christmas time
And buy them some books
that just cost a dime,
So that we can all sit and read
when the work is done,
About why they call father
the old son-of-a-gun.

The hearts of Christmas through-
out the world are dwelling during
this sacred season upon the won-
drous story of that first Christmas
Eve. And what a_ resplendent
spectacle is unfolded before our
wondering eyes in the simple
language of that story. Lowly
shepherds in shepherd's garb —
dumbfounded, stupefied, bewild-
ered: they form the first Christmas
audience. An angel of God, in all
the glory and brilliance of heaven,
is the first Christmas messenger. A
choiy of angels’ voices the first
Christmas chorus.
To help you find that joy of
Christmas, the Redeemer Lutheran
Church of Didsbury invites you to
attend the special Christmas serv-
ices arranged for this season. The
children’s Christmas service will be
held on Tuesday, Dec, 24 beginning
at 8 p.m. In word and song they
will bring you the age-old story of
“Peace On Earth.” The program
is entitled: “The Meaning of
Christmas.”
On Christmas day, Dec. 25, at 11
a.m., Redeemer will conduct its
regulary Christmas _ service. To
fully appreciate the blessings you
and I enjoy as ai result of this
glorious event, we need but ask!
ourselves the question:
“What would be our plight if |
there had been no Christmas?" For
thousands of years man had groan-
ed under the lash of the most cruel
taskmaster — the Prince of Dark-
ness, ‘Then suddenly, the heavens
were torn asunder with the en-
thralling message: “Unto you is
born a Savior.” The ransom had
arrived,
What a glorious festival, this
Christmas. What a glorious mes-
sage, this Gospel. What a glorious
Savior, this Christ. Come, share it
with us.

Occasionally we find it expedient

Here's How For Perfect Fudge -
For Fudge that’s smooth and
creamy not grainy and cnystalized:
1, Use a heavy saucepan. Butter
sides so sugar grains won't cling.
2. Stir fudge until boiling point
and until all the eugar is dissolved.
3. A candy thermometer is very
handy (there’s a hint for Santa).
Be sure bulb is below surface of |
liquid. Read carefully. Cook to,
exact temperature and remove im- |
mediately. |
Or; Use the cold water test - Be |
; sure cup is large and water is icy,
| cold.
; 4. Cool fudge to 110 deg. F or
until pan is comfortably warm.
Drop butter on top but do not atir. |
Even a little jar of the pan may
Start those pesky crystals at this
stage.
6. Once fudge has cooled, beat
vigerously (you may need a helper
to “spell you off")
6. When fudge seems to stiffen
and lose it’s gloss, push out quickly
onto buttered pan (add nuts at
thig point also.)
Good luck Mrs. Santa!
Christmas Time Is Candle Time
Nothing suggests the warm cheery
mood of the Christmas season like
the glow of candle-light. Candles |
are a part of our Christmas tradi-
ion, but do be careful that they |
don’t become a Christmas tragedy |
in your home. Keep them away)
from the Christmas tree and other |
flammable decorations. |
Here's How For Frosty
Christmas Candles
You will need some ordinary
paraffin wax or old candles; some
heavy white string, empty tin cans
and for decorations: snow, sequins,
holly, stars, ete.
Cut the top rim from the tin
cans with tin snips (makes it
easier to remove candles). Met
paraffin or old candles over hot
water. Dip the white cord and al-
low it to harden for the wick. Pour |
the melted wax into your moulds, |
insert wick when the wax has par- |
tially set. Allow candles to harden.
Unmould as you would a jelly
mould by dipping in hot water.
Spread thickly over the candles
and sprinkle with glitter or stars.

it does not, we will inevitably drag
down the rest of the econommy to

FIRST TB HOSPITAL
ESTABLISHED IN 1840
The first hospital for the care of
tuberculosis was opened in England
by Dr. George Bodington in 1840.
He maintained, with good food and
fresh air (provided the patient was
kept warm) many patients would
recover from “consumption” as it
was then called. His idea was ridi-
culed to such an extent that he was
forced to close his hospital. It
was nearly 20 years before another
sanatorium for the treatment of
tuberculosis opened in Germany —
and it stayed open!
